IAA Frankfurt 2017: Jaguar XF Sportbrake

Jaguar’s latest generation XF Sportbrake is on display at the Frankfurt Motor Show 2017. Marking 10 years of the XF lineage, the XF Sportbrake adds additional practicality to Jaguar’s popular luxury sedan. We took a closer look at the car on display at the Jaguar stand.

Owners of the Jaguar XF Sportbrake will likely be interested in the new version’s loan space. Jaguar have confirmed that the XF Sportbrake will include 1,700 litres of load space with the rear seats down. A 25 litre improvement on the outgoing model’s 1,675 litre capacity. With the seats up, 565 litres of load space is available, 15 litres more than the first generation. Jaguar have also confirmed a two-tonne towing capacity.
